Trust Is ...


Honoring God as the only One with all answers for our circumstances.

Seeking God for those answers.

Waiting for God's answer.

Listening for God's answer.

Receiving what God has revealed as all we yet need to know.

Walking in that faith.

Believing God will continue to give instruction, as needed.

Letting God do the rest.

Respecting the character of God knowing, when He gives a promise, He has to be faithful because God cannot lie.

Accountability in not calling God a liar.

Remembering what God has done for us already.

Accepting that God has proved Himself trustworthy to trust again.

Realizing we can even ask God for help with our unbelief.

Acknowledging that God is not a respecter of persons, that however He loved the people of old, He actually wants to love us, too.

Recognizing whenever something touches our heart, that is God; as that is where He dwells.

Discovering that God will always do the most loving thing possible.

Putting the weight of the world back on God's shoulders, where it belongs.

Running to Daddy's arms; knowing He will catch us every time.

Faith to stand against all evil; as per God's individual instruction.

Living above fear.

Seeing God as infallible and undefeatable.

Freedom to be the person God created us to be.

Rejoicing in that God is not finished with us, yet!

The more we come to know and experience God, the greater our trust ~ because He is always faithful. Doubt diminishes and our faith increases... 'til we finally learn that there is no one we can trust more than Him, not even ourselves.

They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Zion,
which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.
As the mountains are round about Jerusalem,
so the Lord is round about his people
from henceforth even for ever.

Psalm 125:1-2
